Adorno XIII 201
Beginning/World/Democritus/Adorno: Because everything that is heavy falls, the big atoms should bounce on the small atoms, and because of this and through certain side-to-side-movements there should arise constant vortexes.
Cosmogony/World Creation/Democritus/Adorno: the concept of world creation is included here - and this is a tremendous progress of the Enlightenment moment in thought.
In the domain of natural explanations as opposed to any transcendental act of creation. This is something like the beginning of a scientific cosmogony, in the attempt to completely separate it from the mythologies.
>World/Democritus, >Necessity/Democritus, >Existence/Democritus, cf. >Being/Ancient philosophy.
